You've purchased a bag of tortillas, and you put them in the freezer for long-term storage, or the fridge to keep them fresh. You get hungry, you want one or two. You open the bag and try to peel one up only to discover that it's firmly stuck to the one beneath it and now you've torn them both trying to get it away from what is now a mangled tortilla mass. Don't let this happen to you—grab some parchment paper, slide them between the tortillas, and put them back in the bag.

This tip comes to us from the folks at America's Test Kitchen, who have a number of snack-food tips up their sleeve just in time for the big game this weekend. This one caught our eye though because really, who hasn't accidentally torn up a couple of tortillas trying to separate one from a package of 10 or more? Thankfully parchment paper (which we hope you have in your kitchen anyway) or wax paper are the perfect tools to keep your tortillas separate and easy to retrieve when you want a snack.

Have any other creative uses for parchment paper, or better tortilla rescue techniques to share? Let's hear them in the comments below.
